Steps:
- If you are using fresh lemon grass, discard the outer leaves and upper half of the stalk. Cut into thin slices and chop fine. If you are using dried lemon grass, soak in warm water for 1 hour, then drain and chop fine. Place the lemon grass, garlic, shallots, chilies, sugar, salt, fish sauce and 2 tablespoons water in a blender and blend to a paste.
- Rinse the chicken well and pat dry. Carefully loosen the skin on the breast and legs, pushing your fingers between the skin and meat to form a pocket. Rub half of the lemon grass paste over the meat under the skin. Rub the remaining paste over the skin and inside the cavity. Tuck the wings underneath; tie the legs with twine. Let stand for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue roasting for 1 1/4 hours, basting the chicken with the vegetable oil and the pan juices. The chicken is done when it registers 180 to 185 degrees on an instant-reading meat thermometer. Let the chicken stand for 10 minutes. Serve with white rice and nuoc cham dipping sauce (see recipe).

Steps:
- slice chicken into bite size pieces. combine with the fish sauce, sugar, 3/4 lemongrass, 1/2 chilli and 1 chopped garlic clove. Marinate for 2 hours (ideally marinated overnight, or if in a rush give it as much time in the marinate as possible). I've marinated for 10min and its fine.
- In a large saucepan on medium heat, add the oil, remaining 3/4 lemongrass, 1/2 chilli, 2 chopped garlic cloves. Fry just until garlic starts to brown.
- Then add the chicken and add the onions and fry for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occassionally.
- Add the chicken stock and stir for 1min. Reduce the heat slightly and cook for a further 4 min or until the liquid has reduced slightly.
- Put it into a bowl and garnish with coriander leaves, bit of cracked pepper, fried onions or spring onions. To serve with boiled jasmine rice.
- TIP: if the ingredients start to become dry in the pan at any stage, add water (or some of the chicken stock) to stop it from burning.
- You can also find the fried onions at oriental stores, they are a great garnish on pretty much any vietnamese dish!
